TOD Marketplace 2011

With 48 miles of FasTracks now under construction, transit-oriented development has the potential to capture roughly half of all Front Range growth in compact communities. With this region poised to grow again, metro Denver has an opportunity to showcase its transit system and its development opportunities to a national audience of developers, lenders, brokers, investors, and companies seeking to locate within TOD.

On Nov. 17, ULI Colorado’s TOD Marketplace: Real Places, Real Projects, Real Deals will provide opportunities to make deals at one of dozens of station areas in the FasTracks network.
